Serving Size: 6
Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
- 0.25 Cup all-purpose flour
- 1 Pinch garlic salt, to taste
- 1 Pinch freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 Pounds pork tenderloin, sliced
- 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) olive oil
- 0.33 Cup balsamic vinegar
- 0.5 Cup chicken broth
- 2 Teaspoons lemon zest, zested
- 1 Pinch capers, to taste
Steps
- In a plastic bag, combine the all-purpose flour, a pinch of garlic salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Add the sliced pork tenderloin pieces, seal the bag, and shake to coat the pork evenly. Shake off any excess flour.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork medallions and cook until golden-brown on both sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Pour in the balsamic vinegar and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium. Simmer until the pork is cooked through and no longer pink in the center, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove the pork medallions from the skillet and place them on a serving platter. Stir the zested lemon zest and a pinch of capers into the simmering sauce in the skillet.
- Continue simmering the sauce until it thickens to your desired consistency. Pour the sauce over the pork medallions and serve immediately.
